Hi welcome to the health care magic

Your bilirubin level and albumin levels are within limit...
Hence chance of jaundice and chronic liver disease is less here...

Your further evaluation for enlarged liver should be done with following...
-CBC and peripheral smear examination, If target cells seen hemoglobinopathy ruled out by HPLC
-Serum viral markers if suspected from history like hbsag
-Serum SGPT, SGOT

According to cause found further management planed...

Alcohol intake should be kept limited..

Heavy drinking can lead liver injury and leads alcoholic liver disease

Hope your concern solved
